Exfoliating Your Lips
Use a washcloth to exfoliate your lips. You can give your lips a quick exfoliation treatment with just a damp washcloth. To remove dead skin from your lips on a daily basis, take a clean washcloth and hold it under warm running water. Then, use the washcloth to gently scrub your lips. Use gentle circular motions to scrub away the dead skin. Pat your lips dry with a clean, dry towel when you are finished.
Buy or make a sugar scrub for your lips. Lip exfoliating scrubs are available in drug stores, department stores, beauty stores, and online. If you want to get a premade scrub, then you should be able to find one with no problem. If you’d rather make your own, then you can use ingredients that you may already have in your kitchen. To make your own exfoliating sugar scrub, add a tablespoon of sugar to a teaspoon of olive oil or coconut oil (at room temperature). Combine the sugar and oil until it they form a paste. You can keep the scrub in a small jar or other container in your refrigerator for up to a week. If you prefer to make the scrub fresh when you need it, then just take a pinch of sugar and few drops of oil and mix them together whenever you want to exfoliate your lips.
Apply a small amount of sugar scrub to your lips. You only need a small amount of sugar scrub to exfoliate your lips, about a ¼ teaspoon or less. Use your index finger to apply the sugar scrub to your upper and lower lips and move it around in circular motions. Rub the sugar scrub all over your lips. Make sure that you scrub all of the surfaces of your lips and the areas around your lips. Do not use sugar scrubs more than twice per week or you may irritate your lips.
Wipe away the sugar scrub with a damp washcloth. When you are finished, take a clean washcloth and moisten it with warm water. Then, use the washcloth to wipe away the sugar scrub. You can also splash a bit of warm water on your lips to get the scrub off of your lips.
Pat your lips dry. After you have removed the sugar scrub from your lips, take a dry towel and pat your lips dry. Do not rub your lips dry with the towel, just use a gentle patting motion to remove any excess moisture. Make sure to follow up your exfoliation treatment with a good lip balm.
Moisturizing Your Lips
Wear lip balm at night. Keeping your lips moist is another good way to keep them soft and kissable. Try wearing lip balm at night to moisturize your lips while you sleep. Apply the lip balm right before bed so that your lips will benefit from the treatment in the morning. If you do not have any lip balm, then you can just use a bit of olive or coconut oil (at room temperature) on your lips instead.
Use a lip balm during the day. Moisturizing your lips during the day is also important. You can use an intense moisturizing balm if your lips are extra dry, but a regular tube of lip balm will also work. Keep your lip balm handy and reapply it often.
Prepare your lips with a deep moisturizer. Before you apply any liner or lipstick to your lips, you should apply a deep moisturizing lip balm or at least a heavy layer of regular lip balm or lipstick. This will help to create a moist, smooth canvas for your lipstick. Apply the lip balm to your lips about 15 to 30 minutes before you want to apply your lipstick.
Choose a moisturizing lipstick. Look for a lipstick that is moisturizing rather than long lasting. Long lasting lipsticks may dry out or irritate your lips more than other types of lipstick. If you are planning on some serious kissing, then you may want to go with a nude or pale pink shade rather than a bright red or coral. Otherwise your kissing partner may end up with lipstick all over. A lip stain may also be a good choice because stains do not come off your lips as easily.
Drawing Attention to Your Lips
Make sure that your breath is fresh. Clean teeth and fresh breath may make your mouth seem more attractive, so make sure that you include dental hygiene in your kissable lip routine. Take a few minutes to brush, floss, and use mouth wash. If you can't brush your teeth, then chew on a piece of gum or have a mint.
Touch your lips. Another way to draw attention to your lips is to touch them with your fingers or with something edible. This can be a seductive, playful or subtle way to get someone to kiss you. For example, you can run the tip of a finger over your lips, as if you are thinking about something. Or, hold an ice cube or a piece of fruit, such as a grape or a strawberry, against your lips for a few seconds before you put it into your mouth. To send a stronger signal, try making eye contact with the person you want to kiss as you touch your lips.
Hold your lips in a seductive way. Another way that you can bring attention to your lips is to hold them in a way that your potential kissing partner might find sexy. For example, you can try pursing your lips, parting your lips slightly, licking your lips, or gently biting one of your lips. Try out a few different things to draw attention to your lips.
Move closer. Physical closeness can also make your lips appear more kissable. It will also be easier for your potential kissing partner to kiss you if you are within arm's reach. Try standing somewhat close to the person you want to kiss. To make it even more clear that you want to be kissed, try looking at your partner's lips instead of making eye contact. This should help him or her to understand that you want to be kissed.
